SISTERLOCKS - BRAIDING & BANDING WASH DAY

[@ijeomanwachuku5168]

I 14 and I got my sisterlocks at age 12. My hair is up to my shoulders and i love it. I thought i was gonna hate it but its so pretty

[@lavenialivinglife]

Musical_ Jojo That’s great! I’m glad you are loving your hair 👸🏾

[@gwendolynn2778]

I cut all my hair off in February and I’m waiting for it to grow back to a decent length so I can start my sister locs, I got discouraged when my father said he didn’t like locs on me but I don’t care anymore

[@monisolagbadebo8977]

you are sooo adorable! the little dip down/rise up in the morning thing! haahah!! Your hair is lovely and very similar to mine! i got sisterlocks one week ago today!

[@lavenialivinglife]

Monisola Gbadebo Thank you! & congrats on the install!! I have no regrets to this day. I absolutely love them & hope you do too!

[@shawnloctrice]

Heeyyy sunshine ☀️! That T-shirt idea is a great way to dry your locks...will definitely have to try that! I love the definition that your locks have after the braid outs! Thanks for sharing! ☺️😍😘

[@lavenialivinglife]

Thanks for watching! Yeah, when I was loose natural, I read somewhere how drying with a t-shirt is better than using a towel. I can't remember why but I've stuck to it lol

[@courtnaesmith6198]

You just helped me make my decision!!!! ❤❤❤❤ thank you.

[@bernadetteleonard4940]

[@nikitacampbell9256]

[@mfonstirratt8847]

gurl i like this video simple and straight to the point thank you ive been looking for a straiht forward video for days lol lol im new to the sista locs and its very costly going to the shop as you know do you have a retighting video?

[@dayonnethomas2103]

Great video You should just cut the rubber bands to prevent breaking Also shouldn’t there be a space between your scalp and the start of the braid to wash more thoroughly? Just asking because I’ve watched other videos

[@laticecarpenter5887]

I love your video! I just got my test locks today!!!

[@tashiathomas6964]

Where did u get the brownish looking cap?

[@LetsJourney]

Great video! Very detailed on your routine!

[@lavenialivinglife]

Let's Journey Thanks for watching!! You have a dream job btw. A little green over here haha!

[@karenshelley5366]

good idea with the T-shirt!

[@lavenialivinglife]

Karen Shelley Something I picked up watching KZbin! Works like a charm👍🏾

[@raht2808]

Gorgeous! Where did you get that hat?

[@monarchnoire]

Did you just use the shampoo straight from the spray bottle or did you add water to it?

[@otherapy2000]

Idk what more adorable, your hair or the pooch!

[@lavenialivinglife]

Dr K I think he has me beat 🐶

[@MsShyKs]

I use color rubber bands .

[@sherryweeks1434]

I have the same issue with the rubber bands🥴

[@boboninca3197]

Is it always important to dry your hair braided? What happens if I take out my braids while wet?

[@roniparish]

I've made this mistake on my starter locs 3mths and my roots married. I was painful pulling them apart. I don't like to hear my roots snap.

[@shantebohrer3827]

I'm new to the Sisterlock journey and will be washing my hair Sunday. How do I rinse the shampoo mixture out? My sisterlock consultant ram out of the Sisterlock take home kits😩 so I've forgotten everything she's told me about wash day. Please help

[@lavenialivinglife]

Shante Bohrer You can rinse the poo while your locs are braided/banded and also let it dry that way. 👌🏾

[@otherapy2000]

Where did you get your locs installed pls?

[@lavenialivinglife]

At Beauty Coliseum in Philly! Here's their website: www.beautycoliseum.com

[@nikijohns9811]

[@TINA512]

[@lavenialivinglife]

[@lavernebryantlb]

Hey ladies..im searching for a great loctian?? To get sister locks..I live in gulfport MS?? Any ideas please

[@emiliaanangfac5178]

The Sisterlocks site has a list of their consultants in each state and they're listed by city. Facebook also has groups; I'm part of "Locked & Loving It" and people are constantly posting helpful information.

[@natural4lifemiss]

Why braid it so tight?

[@scorpiobeauty2420]

How did you wash the shampoo out...this week will be my first wash...I’m 6 days into my journey

[@lavenialivinglife]

Jay RR Just let the water flow over your braided locs until it all rinses out👍🏾

[@montreliaburns1468]

Hiiiii!!! I’m new to your channel and I got my install completed August 25th. I was looking at the cap, some reviews on it complained of dye fading on their linens. Did you have a problem with dye bleeding from the cap? Also have you experienced any slippage since wearing a cap at night?

[@lavenialivinglife]

Montrelia Burns 👋🏾 👋🏾!! Yayyy welcome! The dye ran a bit on me too. I ran it through the wash and ended up hand washing it until it cleared up. After that, I’ve had no issues. No slippage at all while wearing it! No frizz or thinning edges like with some head gear.

[@montreliaburns1468]

lavenialivinglife Thank you so much for responding!! I will definitely be getting a cap😘

[@perttigurl17]

New subbie absolutely love your channel!! Starting my sisterlock journey in October. I think we might have the same consultant!!

[@lavenialivinglife]

kadeema ware Yay welcome!! Simone? Catty is there too. They're both amazing!

[@thearough]

lavenialivinglife is that a special night bonnet that dries hair all the way? Where do I get it

[@portiamckinney5501]

What if you don’t ban your hair but just braid but not ban it

[@nommo4life]

Do you still braid and band?

[@lavenialivinglife]

Shopgyal Oh yes. My hair is still locking. I have about 6 months to go before I think I'll get the thumbs up to stop.

[@lavernebryantlb]

I went to sisterlocks Com already

[@labybar3006]

how often should I shampoo

[@lavenialivinglife]

I try to wash once a week, 2 weeks max. It’s been working out for me. Once a week for sure in the summer or if I’ve been working out a lot.
